Endeavor 3D Earns International Traffic in Arms Registration
Endeavor 3D strengthens its technology capabilities and operational systems to better support the U.S. defense industrial base as well as energy and supply chain manufacturing services.
Contract manufacturer Endeavor 3D has earned International Traffic in Arms Registration (ITAR) status for metal and polymer additive manufacturing (AM) services. The latest registration (along with ISO 9001:2015 certification) enables Endeavor 3D to expand its commercial business in aerospace, energy, defense and supply chain manufacturing.
ITAR is a set of U.S. government regulations that control the import, export and manufacturing of defense products, services and activities. The purpose of ITAR, which is administered by the U.S. Department of State, is to protect national security and advance American foreign policy interests. As it relates to Endeavor 3D, ITAR regulations include the secure handling of technical data and process control of equipment, components, materials and software to properly support relevant manufacturing needs.
“Endeavor 3D has strengthened its technology capabilities and operational systems to better support the U.S. defense industrial base,” says Phil Arnold, Endeavor 3D Chief Executive Officer. “The ITAR is an important milestone that bolsters our commitment to American manufacturing and innovation. We believe that our portfolio of advanced polymer and metal additive manufacturing services complement major initiatives in defense, energy and supply chain manufacturing.”
The company says it is equipped with the most sophisticated AM and quality control technologies available today. As an HP Digital Manufacturing Network partner, Endeavor 3D has gone through a rigorous accreditation process and approved to be a series production partner for both metal and polymer 3D printing services.
Endeavor 3D is located 30 minutes west of Atlanta in Douglasville, Georgia, and was recently nominated for small business of the year in Douglas County.
